ORLY airport to CDG airport

Posted by (Western WA, USA) on

Hi, I’m traveling solo with just a carry-on with wheels, and a backpack. But I’m a senior so wanting to be smart about getting from Orly to CDG on a weekday afternoon. I’ll catch my flight the next morning, so no pressure.

It’s been suggested for me to take the ORLYVAL to Antony, then the RER B into CDG airport. However, I also read that the RER B may likely be jammed with locals who don’t appreciate someone with a suitcase thus making my trip difficult and uncomfortable. So I’m wondering ….

1) Is this is true?

2) Do I need to find something better?

3) Is there a set price for taxi fare from Orly to CDG? If so where can I find it?

Thanks for your input.

There is no fixed taxi fare from airport to airport. The ride will be metered.

I recommend from ORY, taking métro 14 to Châtelet/Les Hall, change to the RER B for Roissy/Charles de Gaule/CDG. Cost is 14€.

Hi Tocard,
Why do you suggest “… taking métro 14 to Châtelet/Les Hall” rather than ORLYVAL to RER B?

Good heavens, the RER B is going to the airport. Lots of people will have suitcases, along with other travelers.

Chatelet-Les Halles is a bit of a maze, but the the signage is good if I recall. Antony might be simpler, but the Orlyval train is not part of the Paris transport system, so there is some extra cost.

We used UBER, clean and efficient and fixed price. We had a checked bag and did not want to do the train or bus.
